Supervillain Ranvi De Witt is somehow not in prison yet, but her superhero nemesis is. When he asks her to consult on a murder-case that could free him, at first, she's thinking only of the money (well, at first, she laughs in his face, but after that, she's thinking only of the money). 

But when her dim-witted minion (and actual best friend) is brainwashed to act like a fairytale princess, she realises this murderer is targeting her as well as her nemesis. He's got a lot of power, even if he's literally butchering the fairytales he's forcing his victims to recreate. And he's supposed to be dead.  

'Surrounded by Idiots' is a comic fantasy novella about morally grey areas and the power of stories: how some of them can cage you, while others can set you free.All Rights Reserved

Without A Trace (Open Novella Contest) [Completed] by lemoncandyfloss

Shortlisted for the Open Novella Contest 2019 • Being a Supervillain is tough. Between managing a secret lair and making sure your mom doesn't stop loving you because you keep telling everyone she's dead, it's a really hard business to be good at? Add to that, the fact that somehow you got arrested because your cat sitter didn't take the day off and then you go around expressing your unconditional love for pancakes in a Super holding cell because technically they can't put you in a proper prison and you don't really have a choice because lawyers are expensive? And then, you realise your best friend is plotting go take over your spot as the greatest villain there ever was? Okay, maybe not the greatest, but you do come pretty close to it! To top it off, there's that one Superhero who's just so completely gorgeous, you couldn't imagine any harm coming to them? Because they're just that precious? I guess that makes me a Supervillain with minor time travel superpowers and a huge crush on a not so powerful Superhero? And all you have to do is protect yourself and everyone you love from your ex best friend/sidekick --because let's face it that's the highest level of praise for a wretched traitor here--and you also have to get out of Super Holding somehow? What could go wrong? Right?

When the Raven Calls by Earthstone

A THOUSAND YEARS AGO, MAGIC VANISHED FROM THE KINGDOM OF ILLVONYA. Now, it's been returning, and just in time to cause a whole lot of trouble for the Thieves' Guild of Archport--like they didn't have enough to deal with, working with the Raven Associates to smuggle slaves out of Evaren (a neighboring nation), keeping their reputation as a group of fearless criminals, and keeping their identities a secret. There's just one thing that no one knows: it's a group of teenagers. With unforeseen complications arising and a country that seems to be teetering on the edge of chaos, it's all they can do to keep their heads above the water. But when Sam begins to develop abilities after coming into contact with an ancient artifact and the people with abilities, or the Tainted, start to be grabbed in night raids and thrown in jail or up for public executions, they know it's only a matter of time before they are forced to become more involved. Little do they know the full extent of what's coming... With a goddess-given mission and the fight of their lives close approaching, can these rag-tag heroes pull themselves together in time to save the kingdom and themselves? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey everyone! This is a high-fantasy novel with a good dash of humor, so please check it out!! This is also my NaNoWriMo project, so frequent updates (at least in November 2015).

Podcast of a Teenage Super-Villian by HeroBreaker

THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE AFTER 'BLOG OF A TEENAGE SUPERHERO'. You don't have to read that book first to understand the events that unfold in this one, but this story will spoil all the major plot twists in BoaTS. *** What makes a supervillain? After escaping prison, ex-supervillain Masquerade is on the run from the city he used to love. But the past, in the form of a boy he hurt and a superhero who saved him, won't let him go. He thinks if he joins the organization that wants to destroy "mutated monsters" like himself and the supers he used to terrorize, then maybe he can be made human again. Flawed logic, sure, but Masquerade would do anything to escape the person he's become. But when this organization takes their agenda a step too far, resulting in a tragedy far too close, Masquerade has got to choose: to be the person he's learned to be, or to fight back. *** COMPLETE

No Superheroes Allowed by HeroBreaker

Patrick Lee didn't want to become a super-villain. As far he's concerned, he's actually a pretty cool guy. A thrill-seeker and a dork, he spends most of his time fooling around with friends and working in a church nursery. That is, until a botched murder attempt from his handsome soon-to-be nemesis thrusts him into a world of magic and not-so-heroic superheroes. Vowing to use his powers only for good, Patrick finds himself on the wrong side of both the law and powerful superheroes. But the magician who tried to murder Pat is still hunting him down, and while other parts of his identity threaten to leave him jobless and broke, Patrick can't help but get himself wound up in cults, revolutions, and sinister plots that shake his views on good and evil. Patrick didn't want to become a supervillain, but sometimes, to do the right thing, you have to play with a little dark magic. *** COMPLETE Beautiful cover by @foxinscreamingcolor!

Guide to Being a Superhero...'s BFF (Guide to Being, Novella One) by TCKauthor

Friendship doesn't change when your bestie becomes a fire-wielding champion, but a lot of other stuff does. Like having to put 'kidnapped by idiots with powers' on your weekly schedule. And enduring said idiots' cliché monologues while inwardly roasting their interior decorating skills. Hey, I'm Mira. That's right, Miracle Simmons. BFF to America's favorite superhero celeb; Firebird. (Bu-bye, Chris Evens, your reign is over.) You've probably heard of her, but not of me. That's okay! I'm her bestie! It's my job to make sure she doesn't burn herself out fighting morons, keep her focused in her actual real life, and try to show her that she doesn't have to pick every fight. Uh-huh, I have it way worse than her. Anyway, if you're reading this, you are most likely a newbie superhero bestie. Or a salty television producer. Or my mom. (Hi, Mom.) Whoever you are; buckle up, and enjoy my tale of supervillains who aren't villains-or super, superheroes who don't want to work anymore, and the rotten media that started it all. And me. The wanna-be normal engineering student who God decided had to be kidnapped to get a date.

The Starlight Sentinels: The Amusing Story of a Struggling Superhero Team by JGrayDingler

A man, a woman, a boy, a girl, a demon, and an alien, all walk into a bar... THEY FIGHT CRIME! The Starlight Sentinels goes beyond The Watchmen's question of "Who would want to be a superhero?" by asking "Who would want to be a superhero if being a superhero was just another job people needed doing?" The Starlight Sentinels, that's who! They're not your traditional superhero team, and they're not the other guys either, nor are they the grizzled antihero type. Instead, they're just people who happen to work as superheroes in a world where being a superhero isn't so much a call to greatness as it is an eccentric career choice and super villains are just another problem that people try not to think about. Drawing inspiration from films such as Shawn of the Dead and TV series such as the Venture Bros, the Starlight Sentinels was crafted to be an amusing and occasionally action-packed adventure grounded by a diverse cast of humorous but relatable characters. You may laugh at their numerous missteps, but you'll also be cheering for these heroes and heroines hard-earned triumphs as well. Join this comedic costumed cabal in their debut adventure as they fight crime and battle the forces of evil anytime they're not stuck filling out forms for the police, trying to appease their overbearing corporate sponsor, struggling to gain recognition from an apathetic public, or arguing over whose turn it is to do the shopping in this hilarious tongue-in-cheek tale that takes on all things superhero! If you enjoy the first half of The Starlight Sentinels, you can pick up the full book on every major eBook seller, or order a printed copy from Amazon or Createspace.

Finding Family | A Naruto/LOTR Crossover by thatdamnuchiha

Trolling people is Kakashi's way of dealing with his new situation. Running away is Sakura's answer. Sasuke's solution involves hiding, and Naruto just wonders what his Uzumaki luck has landed him in this time around. Middle-earth is a strange new territory, with strange new threats, overprotective elves, and four little elflings who just want to find their way home... wherever that home might be, because like it or not, they're stuck there with no chance of return. Death tends to be final like that, especially when there's no one left to edo tensei oneself back to life. A second chance at life should be a blessing, but trouble somehow always finds Team Seven, whether it comes in the form of strange beasts called orcs or nosy golden-haired elves who think they've returned from the Halls of Mandos too, though perhaps this time they might get a few thousand years of peace before the action begins.

Kill it by CaptainARG

Being part of a world where abilities exist makes life so much more enticing for one to view it slowly crumble to pieces, as for those who have one, use it for the bad, and only the few left use it for the greater good. Malissa, a former criminal with a deadly ability was sent to prison for life. Being held in a special ability prison somewhere in Europe, she was escorted one day out of nowhere into an office, met with a boss, and 4 other ability users. Whatever could be the reason?

What A Lovely Night by K_A_Knutson

|BOOK 1 IN "WHAT A LOVELY SERIES"| Centuries into the future, earth's humans have changed. After a newly awakened dominant genome triggered the new arrival of superpowers, earth's inhabitants finally became super like their predecessors could have only dreamed of being. With now 50% of the population possessing some kind of power, the earth runs rampant with heroes and villains. And what better to train new aspiring heroes, than thriving hero schools. And better yet, the best one across the world, the Metropolis Hero Academy. Lilith Ito is a rather odd case. With a rather dark past that left Lilith both with no memory of the event and an unclassified type of Dissociative Identity Disorder, Lilith's home life had always been less than perfect. But as she began to acquire powers and a mentor with a similar ability, Lilith began to do something for herself, even without the intentions of a hero. But after her mentor was killed in action, Lilith finally takes one more selfish step and gets into M.H. Academy based on her dead mentor's recommendation letter. But keeping her past from her new classmates is hard. From new friends that Lilith doesn't want to scare away to a boy that somehow has captured her heart, Lilith has got her hands full. And as a hidden evil begins to arise from the shadows, Lilith will have to tackle her new life as a hero student with a clear conviction of whom she wants to be and what she'll sacrifice to get there. But dear reader, you must always remember: Evil still lurks around the corner. TO COMPLY WITH WATTPAD GUIDELINES, THE FOLLOWING BOOK HAS BEEN MARKED AS MATURE FOR ITS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
